IBM System x3250 M4 IBM System x at-a-glance guide The System x3250 M4 single-socket 1U rack server is designed for small businesses and first-time server buyers looking for a solution to improve business efficiency. It delivers several IBM® innovative features in a compact 1U form factor with a competitive price. The IBM System x3250 M4 provides next-generation performance in an innovative and compact design with flexible configuration options, built-in security, and systems management capabilities. This server is designed for infrastructure applications such as firewall, security, disaster recovery, name server, authentication, credit card processing, email, domain controller, and more. It leverages the next-generation dual-core and quad-core Intel Xeon processor technology.
Figure 1. IBM System x3250 M4
Did you know The System x3250 M4 server is a compact, cost-effective, single-processor 1U rack server that has been optimized to provide outstanding availability, manageability, and performance features to small-to-medium-sized businesses, retail stores, or distributed enterprises. It supports the latest Xeon processors for applications that require performance and stability, and Core i3 processors for applications that require lower cost. The system includes features not typically seen in this class of system, such as standard, embedded RAID-0/1 for simple-swap models, remote control capabilities even when the machine is powered off, and Predictive Failure Analysis (PFA) on processor and memory. This flexible 1U rack-mountable server is also highly upgradable and expandable, scaling from low-cost, fixed-function models to feature-rich, highly available models.

Remote management The server contains IBM IMM, which provides advanced service-processor control, monitoring, and alerting functions. If an environmental condition exceeds a threshold or if a system component fails, the IMM lights LEDs to help you diagnose the problem, records the error in the event log, and alerts you to the problem. Optionally, the IMM also provides a virtual presence capability for remote server management capabilities. The IMM provides remote server management through industry-standard interfaces:
Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) Version 2.0 Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) Version 3 Common Information Model (CIM) Web browser
